concept: augmented memory

 

Augmented memory is a concept growing out of the inclination to assume that human memory is faulty. Many inventors are designing computer-augmented memory applications. In some ways, augmented memory (where the goal is to remember better) is closely related to the notion of digital life (where the goal is to remember everything).
